Seating Sections
Turns 1-2 Grandstands
The most action-packed sections. Cars brake hard entering turn 1 and accelerate through turn 2 — this is where passes happen, tires squeal, and crashes occur. The most exciting seats on the track.
Front Stretch Grandstands
The main grandstands facing the start/finish line and pit road. See pit stops, restarts, and the checkered flag. Higher rows offer the best panoramic track views.
Neon Garage (Infield)
The ultimate fan experience — infield access with behind-the-scenes views of pit crews, car prep, and driver appearances. Pre-race access, garage tours, and trackside views.
Turns 3-4 Grandstands
Watch cars blast through the final turns before the front stretch. Less popular than turns 1-2 but still excellent racing views at lower prices.
